Bloober Team has revealed the official PC system requirements for The Medium via its Steam store page. The Medium is a tension-fueled, psychological horror game that focuses on a central motif: how your perspective changes your perception.
According to the specs, PC gamers will at least need an Intel Core i5-6600 or an AMD Ryzen 5 2500X with 8GB of RAM. Bloober has also listed the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 and AMD Radeon R9 390X as the minimum required GPUs for gaming at 1080p.
Bloober recommends using an Intel Core i5-9600 or an AMD Ryzen 7 3700X with 16GB of RAM. The team also recommends using an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 Ti or an AMD Radeon RX Vega 56 for gaming at 1080p. For 4K, the team recommends the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 or the AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT.
Now I should note that the previous game from Bloober had some optimization and performance issues on the PC. As we wrote in our PC Performance Analysis, the NVIDIA RTX2080Ti struggled to run Blair Witch at 2560×1440. Therefore, and since The Medium is a next-gen game, its “real” requirements may be higher than those listed below.
Lastly, Bloober released yesterday a new gameplay trailer for The Medium. You can also find the latest screenshots for this horror game here.

Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.
